Abstract

A novel design for a monochromatorless atomic fluorescence spectrometer is presented. The instrument was used to measure the atomic fluorescence of Cd, Hg, and Zn. Analytical curves obtained agreed with theoretical predictions. Limits of detection and scatter experiments demonstrated the sensitivity and selectivity of the instrument.
